LCBride2007

So I talked to my mom and she was thinking of running a summer special (discount) since it's the slow season for her. I don't have the details yet, but if you're interested let me know and I can post them on here.

Well, officially it is $465 (31 people paid). BUT ... if everyone pays that says they're going to (check in the mail, going to PayPal me today, etc.) that will go up by as many as 3-5 people. This might tie Season III as the biggest season - the potential is there!

I bought a huge bag last week and I'm eating them like popcorn! I suppose that has to stop ...

I found this thread immediately when I did a search on the title that you provided. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t39360

tomorrow is the initial weigh-in! there are 30 people paid so far (woohoo!), and likely a few more will straggle in. i know some people have sent payments that haven't yet cleared or arrived via snail mail yet, so i do expect that # to change. here is the list of paid participants so far ... *NOTE: If you aren't on this list but plan on paying, or have sent a payment that just hasn't gone through yet - please still send me your initial weight tomorrow! It's important that all people participating start at the same point. Adlergray (Jill) Adlergray (Tim) alyssa BeachBride10 (Ruthie) budgetjamaicabride (Beverly) DanielleNDerek deefalvey flygirl (Trish) Hunnyhun921 (Khajeesah) Jacilynda (Jacilyn) jamaicabride09 (Alicia) jpitts78 (Joanne) jrprice24 (Jessica) KLC77 (Kelly) lauren lgarner83 (Lisa) OROBride1008 (Maria) Paul'sSoulMate (Amanda) Prettyhazardous (Ashley) pvbeachbride10 (Meghan) Raeka (Mel) Sapphire723 (LeAnne) Sarah Scubadiva (Holly) SgtPepperette (Melissa) STACEY starchild (Jamy) TA Jill tdmitchell (Tiffany) Vikki

Glad you enjoyed it ... I know how much I appreciated food early on, so I can only imagine that you appreciated it twice as much! lol They're so beautiful!

This will be a great resource for anyone planning a DW wedding. Thanks, Tammy!

ok, I added the banners to the first post.

Maybe we can put the banners in the 1st post so they're easy to find. They're in this thread somewhere - I will see if I can find them. I suggest everyone take a glance at the rules, especially the newer girls. It should explain everything in there, and if it doesn't please let me know and I can update them so that they're more clear!

Only a week left to enter, right? I can't wait to see who wins! Quote: Originally Posted by BillysBride OK, I've tried to resist for 3 days now...and failed miserably. Gotta throw my hat into the ring! Sending you guys an email right now! Oh, why resist ... give in to temptation, this would be well worth it!

How exciting!

All - remember, you are not required to take a before & after picture. Many of the girls have found it to be helpful and motivating, but it's not a requirement! The only photos that are required are the weekly weigh ins - a picture of the scale is required every week.

You aren't supposed to see the flowers! They just blend. I know - I think the white pops too much! Maybe a green flower, or just a dead one so it's brown.

I have found that pudding also works for me when I need a chocolate fix.

I'm pretty lenient when it comes to getting the payment to me if you're serious about signing up. As long as it comes in the first week or so of the contest - I know snags sometimes happen. It's most important that you get your initial weigh in to me on time so that everyone starts on the same day. But so I don't have to go chasing everyone around last minute, get signed up now please!

i would have gone w/something other than a white flower.

that's the same as it is for our public schools - technically we pay for them, it's our tax $$!

ok, Jill - no problem! you can sign up for this through the end of day Tuesday!

you made a beautiful bride! why wouldn't you want to share? whatever persuaded you, I'm glad you did!

if you look at it that way, we pay for public school here too! it's all paid for with tax money! this is an interesting thread, i'm glad it was started. i know gwen will be exposed to the Catholic church because Paul's family is very involved. and i'm ok with that - i do want her exposed to different religions. like many of you, i don't know how that happens since it's not really a part of my life. but i do worry about them forcing it on her though; not in an intentionally harmful way, but just because they believe so strongly and that's all they know. to them, that is how it is, KWIM? but if i ever see them tell her something she believes in or an opinion she has is wrong then i will have to have a talk with them. that's one of my biggest fears.

This is even more important with the number of participants, and especially some newer ones that I don't recognize. And also be sure to put your usernames on your weigh-ins as well!
